Kardiolita Hospital

Vilnius, Lithuania -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/01/2016 -- When considering to go abroad for medical treatment, many people take into consideration the extra price involved: flights, transportation, daily expenses in another country.

Lithuania, while offering world-class medical care and western-European culture, is a choice of many due to the low travel costs and very convenient transportation.

Vilnius is just a 2,5-hour flight away from London which makes it one of the most attractive medical treatment destinations for UK patients. Flight costs are impressively low on a regular, non-holiday week: one passenger would pay about 50 GBP on average for flight tickets both ways. While the prices may get slightly higher around weekends and on holiday, they are still extremely low, making it an easier for patients who are on a budget to choose their medical treatment destination.

Vilnius is a very European city with very friendly and nice people – at the same time, it's very cozy and convenient in terms of transportation.

"We have drivers and medical assistants who pick our patients up from the airport and it takes no more than 15 minutes to get from the airport to the hospital, even on rush hours. For British people, who are used to spend 2-3 hours in traffic daily, this is unheard of." – says Andrius Jonutis, the General Deputy Manager at Kardiolita Hospital in Vilnius, Lithuania.

"Even with all expenses added: flights, a hotel for a couple days, meals and transportation, the total expense one would need to plan for, would not exceed 300 Eur – knowing patients also save up to 60% for surgery or their chosen medical services, these are significant savings – especially knowing they get the same high quality services as they would in Germany or the U.S." – Andrius Jonutis adds.
